Description: Further DetailsTitle: DinehCondition: NewSubtitle: An Autobiographical NovelEAN: 9798985206906ISBN: 9798985206906Publisher: White Goat PressFormat: HardbackRelease Date: 04/30/2022Description: Available in English translation for the first time, Dineh, posthumously published, is an autobiographical Yiddish-language novel by Ida Maze (1893-1962). Dineh is a pastorale laced with beauty and sorrow and a bildungsroman told from the point of view of a young girl. Living in what is now Belarus, Maze's eponymous heroine is fuelled by her hunger for learning, connection to family and community, and love of the natural world.Maze interweaves Dineh's story with portraits of others, chiefly women and girls, in her community. We meet the mysterious seamstress Shprintse; Beyle, who leaves home to work as a maidservant in Minsk; and Hinde, who falls in love with a young nobleman, among numerous unforgettable others. Maze unflinchingly examines the lives of women, writing about class stratification, thwarted romance, violence (domestic, state-instigated, and otherwise), and the perils of childbirth. She was also interested in the lives of non-Jews and in relations between Jews and non-Jews.Propelling the novel forward are the tightening noose of Tsarist anti-Semitism, the increasing restrictions on Jewish economic survival, and the rising tide of revolutionary movements. Taken as a whole, Dineh provides a haunting portrait of rural, village, and small-town life in White Russia in the last decade of the nineteenth and early years of the twentieth centuries.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 159mmItem Weight: 648gAuthor: Ida MazeGenre: FictionTranslator: Yermiyahu Ahron TaubContributor: Yermiyahu Ahron Taub (Translated by)Item Width: 22mmRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
